Falling for Ya (Soundtrack: "Teen Beach Movie")

.

The day started ordinary
Boys walking by (ooo ooo)
It was the same old story
Too fresh or too shy (ooo ooo)

Im not the kind to fall for a guy
Who flashes a smile (It goes on for miles)
Dont usually swoon
But Im over the moon (Cause he was just too cool for school)

And now Im
Falling for ya, falling for ya
I know I shouldnt but I
I just cant stop myself from
Falling for ya, falling for ya
Cant hold on any longer
And now Im falling for you

Now were going steady
Hes the cats meow (Meow Meow!)
He says Im a betty
And we paint the town (ooo ooo)

Im not the kind to fall for a guy
Just cause he says hi (when hes cruisin by)
Hes ready to race
And Im catching his gaze (Theyll go on like this for days)

And now Im
Falling for ya, falling for ya
I know I shouldnt but I
I just cant stop myself from
Falling for ya, falling for ya
Cant hold on any longer
And now Im falling for ya

It feels like I tumbled from another world
Into your arms and its so secure
Maybe Ill stumble but I know for sure
Head over heels Im gonna be your girl

And now Im
Falling for ya, falling for ya
I know I shouldnt but I
I just cant stop myself from
Falling for ya, falling for ya
Cant hold on any longer
And now Im falling for you

Oxygen (Soundtrack: "Teen Beach Movie")

Baby tell me, is this good for you?
Cause for me, its a dream come true
I think about you boy day and night
If this is wrong, I dont care if Im right

Cause I know
One things for certain
Boy Im not hurtin for inspiration
And I feel when were together
It could be forever and ever and ever

I wanna be the ocean to your shore
Bring you comfort evermore
I wanna be the only thing you need
Be the oxygen you breathe

Is this as good as I think it is?
Cause right now Im so into this
And theres nothing more that I would ever ask for
Than to be with you, just to be with you

Cause one things for certain
Boy Im not hurtin for inspiration
And I feel when were together
It could be forever and ever and ever

I wanna be the ocean to your shore
Bring you comfort evermore
I wanna be the only thing you need
Be the oxygen you breathe

What you give you will receive
So baby bring it all to me
And I will warm you like the sun
I always knew you were the one

I wanna be the ocean to your shore
Bring you comfort evermore
I wanna be the only thing you need
Be the oxygen you breathe

I wanna be the ocean to your shore
Bring you comfort evermore
I wanna be the only thing you need
Be the oxygen you breathe

Pool Mash Up: Just The Way You Are/Just a Dream (Soundtrack: "Pitch Perfect")

.

Oh, her eyes, her eyes,
make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day

(I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me)
I know, I know
(Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be)
when I compliment her she won't believe me
(Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream)
it's so, it's so, sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look ok,
(It's only a dream)
I say

When I see your face
(So I travelled back, down that road)
Will she come back, no one knows
Not a thing that I would change
(I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream)
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are
(it was only Just A Dream)

When I see your face
(So I travelled back, down that road)
(Will she come back, no one knows)
Not a thing that I would change
(I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream)
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are
(it was only Just A Dream)

When I see your face

h
I gotta new life,
You would hardly recognize me,
I'm so glad,
How could a person like me care for you,
Why do I bother when you're not the one for me,
Is enough enough,

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes,
and I am happy now living without you,
I've left you all alone
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
(I saw the sign I saw the sign)
I saw the sign
(I saw the sign I saw the sign)
I saw the sign

Close your eyes,
Give me your hand darlin,
Do you feel my heart beating,
Do you understand,
Do you feel the same,
Am I only dreamin,
Or is this burning an eternal flame,

Say my name,
Sun shines through the rain,
A whole life so lonely,
Then you come and ease the pain,
I don't want to lose this feeling,
Is this burning an eternal flame,

Turn it around,
Turn it around,
Turn it turn it, X4
Turn it around

Turn the beat around love to hear percussion
(Turn the beat around... love to hear percussion)
Turn it upside down love to hear percussion
(Turn it upside down... love to hear percussion)
Turn the beat around love to hear percussion
(Turn the beat around you gotta turn it around)
Turn it upside down love to hear it
((Turn the beat around you gotta turn it around)
Love to hear it love to hear percussion

Turn it around,
Turn it around,
Turn it turn it, X4
Turn it around

Oh Mickey , you're so fine
You're so fine, you blow my mind
Hey Mickey (hey hey), Hey Mickey

Oh Mickey, you're so fine

~~~~~

Youre so fine and youre mine
Ill be yours till the end of time
Cause you made me feel
Yeah, you made me feel
So shiny and new

Like a virgin
Touched for the very first time
Like

~~~~~
Like the one in me
Thats O.K.
Lets see how you do it
Put up your dukes
Lets get down to it

Hit me with your best shot
Why dont you hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

~~~~~

Na na na
Come on
Na na na na na
Come on, come on, come on

Cause I may be bad
But Im perfectly good at it
Sex in the air
I dont care I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me

Cause I may be bad
But Im perfectly good at it

~~~~~

Sex baby
Lets talk about you and me
Lets talk about all the good things
And the bad things that may be
Lets talk about sex
Alright

Lets talk about sex
A little bit, a little bit

Lets talk about sex, baby

~~~~~

Baby, all through the night
Ill make love to you
Like you want me too
And I

~~~~~

And I guess its just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I cant help myself
Youre all in the world to me

It feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time
It feels like the first time

~~~~~

It's going down, fade to Blackstreet
The homies got at me collab' creations
Bump like acne, no doubt
I put it down, never slouch
As long as my credit could vouch
A dog couldn't catch me, straight up

Tell me who could stop when
Dre making moves
Attracting honeys like a magnet
Giving 'em eargasms with my mellow accent
Still moving this flavour with homies
Blackstreet and Teddy
The original rump shakers


Shorty get down, good Lord
Baby got them open up all over town
Strictly biz she dont play around
Cover much ground, got game by the pound

Getting paid is a forte
Each and every day true player way
I cant get her outta my mind
I think about the girl all the time

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Baby

I like the way you work it,
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Baby,

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Baby

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up


I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Babe

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up

[Verse 1:]
I got my ticket for the long way round
Two bottle a whiskey for the way
And I sure would like some sweet company
And Im leaving tomorrow, wha-do-ya say?

[Chorus 1:]
When Im gone
When Im gone
Youre gonna miss me when Im gone
Youre gonna miss me by my hair
Youre gonna miss me everywhere, oh
Youre gonna miss me when Im gone

[Verse 2:]
Ive got my ticket for the long way around
The one with the prettiest of views
Its got mountains, its got rivers, its got sights to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you

[Chorus 2:]
When Im gone
When Im gone
Youre gonna miss me when Im gone
Youre gonna miss me by my walk
Youre gonna miss me by my talk, oh
Youre gonna miss me when Im gone

Since U Been Gone (Soundtrack: "Pitch Perfect")

Here's the thing we started out friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah yeah
Since U Been Gone

Your dedicated you took the time
Wasn't long till I called you mine
Yeah Yeah
Since U Been Gone

And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I pictured me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But Since U Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (now I get)
What I want
Since U Been Gone

How can I put it? You put me on.
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since U Been Gone

How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way

But Since U Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (Thanks to you)
Now I get (Now I get) what I want
Since U Been Gone

You had your chance (you had your chance) you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again

Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone

Please don't stop the music (music, music, music)
Please don't stop the music (music, music, music)
Please don't stop the music (music, music, music)

[Verse 1:]
It's getting late
I'm making my way over to my favorite place
I gotta get my body moving, shake the stress away
I wasn't looking for nobody when you looked my way
Possible candidate, yeah
Who knew, that you'd be up in here lookin' like you do
You're making staying over here impossible
Baby I must say, your aura is incredible
If you don't have to go (don't)

[Bridge:]
Do you know what you've started?
I just came here to party
But now we're rocking on the dancefloor, acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest and now we're face to face

[Chorus:]
I wanna take you away
Let's escape into the music DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it

Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the, please don't stop the music

Don't you feel the passion ready to explode
What goes on between us no one has to know
This is a private show, oh

But now we're rockin on the dancefloor, acting naughty
Your hands around my waist

Losing Teeth (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

We couldn't wait for the days to get longer,
Spend nights sitting up, wasting away
All the shit that we did when we were younger,
Think back and it feels like yesterday
We were losing teeth,
Stayed up again last night, talk some sense to me

But so it seems the time has come
To pack your bags, close eyes and run like I did,
If you do it first I'll follow straight behind you
Cuz growing old is a waste of time,
To say goodbye is a waste of breath,
We'll stick it out til the bitter end

I remember every night that we spent on the edge,
The cold warmth and the bitter taste that it left
Young, dumb, carefree and reckless,
But there's some method to the madness

Passed out in the living room,
Moved on but I'll see you soon,
Bored now you're absent,
Back home there's still nothing to do
Though we complained about it all
Was such a worthwhile waste of my time,
Each day and each night a memory,
Take care and please don't forget me

Don't give a fuck what they have to say,
Cuz we'll just do it anyway,
And if I break a bone or it fries my brain,
We took a risk and laughed at our mistakes.
Give a fuck if we don't fit in!
We don't need them,
They don't know a thing about us,
All the times we shared
The world at our feet and in the wind in our hair,

But some things must change,
And as much as I hate it,
It kills me to say our goodbyes as we turn the page
And move on to the next chapter,
And hope it won't hold disaster
Now the world's so big it seems,
But the blank white walls won't let me breathe
And if the big wide world caved in tonight,
I'd see you on the other side

Passed out in the living room,
Moved on but I'll see you soon,
Bored now you're absent,
Back home there's still nothing to do
Though we complained about it all
Was such a worthwhile waste of my time,
Each day and each night a memory,
Take care and please don't forget me

Crushing Grief (No Remedy) (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

She's dressed in blue and black again,
Sometimes red or yellow dress,
She can't seem to make up her mind,
A shed of light is hard to find.
She was too cool for me to catch,
Or was I too slow and second best?
I always knew this day would come,
I've got some things to get off my chest

This whole thing's open to conversation,
But I'm not holding my breath about it.
I'm sick and tired of all your bullshit
When all it is who can scream the loudest.
And it's funny how the time it flies
And the people how they change,
You know it's funny how you changed...

Crushing grief
There is no remedy,
The mess you made of me,
Sleep with the enemy and
I'll miss that old routine we had:
Get high, have sex, get high again,
I know you wanted more from me,
It's something I could never be

This whole thing's open to conversation,
But I'm not holding my breath about it.
I'm sick and tired of all your bullshit
When all it is who can scream the loudest.
And it's funny how the time it flies
And the people how they change,
You know it's funny how you changed...
[x2]

(I don't need you,
Keep your distance.
I don't need you,
Things have changed)

Crushing grief
There is no remedy
The mess you made of me,
The worst I'll ever be.

I started looking past the point
That you were always best for me,
I've fought my way through all of this,
I've learned and loved and fell apart
I came through unscathed,
Albeit betrayed,
But fuck playing safe,
I won't let you get the best of me

.

Staircase Wit (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

The feeling starts to sink in,
But it's beginning to rust,
Still hanging onto the things that we discussed,
But the point that was made isn't said and done...

Now the sun shines so bright, but it won't shine for you,
You remind me of rain in July
And the gloom that I felt for a year,
And the clouds are always shaped just like you

But there's a parting light...

I always told you that someday
I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way,
You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
Lay in the bed that you made
So I can finally say that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
I won't change my mind 'cuz I know that I'm better off,
But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip

Don't judge me on my bad habits,
I could pick out every flaw of yours,
And unearth all your imperfections.

Beneath the surface I have seen,
The ugly truth behind the beauty queen...
Held it back,
Lost the nerve,
Was too scared to talk when you gave me your hand
And you gave me your heart,
When you should have kept it to yourself

You should have kept it to yourself,
I wish you'd kept it to yourself

.

Damsel In Distress (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

We'll stay up late
I'll end up sleeping on the floor,
The people here are nothing new
I'll see how I'm feeling...
Nah, fuck this I'm leaving
Conversation is wearing thin,
I don't even know whose house this is,
I kinda wish I just stayed home,
But Friday night is boring on my own

And then she makes her entrance,
Stumbles defenseless through the door,
Her dirty tricks hid up her sleeve,
She's done this a thousand times before

You can brag, you can gloat,
Eat your words, hope you choke
But the grass on your side doesn't seem so green,
All the shit that you spoke,
Will you sink? Will you float?
Will you hang by a rope from the old oak tree?

She's a witch
She's a mess
She's a waste of time,
Damsel in distress on a steep decline,
When all she wants is someone to keep her warm

Maybe I'll walk home on my own to sleep it off,
And think about some things as I stumble through the dark,
But the only glimpse of me in her I could see,
Was in her left wing mirror staring back at me
Now you're at home I guess you're alone again,
It's 5am as she stumbles to bed
Plays out thoughts in her head,
Falls asleep then wakes up wishing she was
Dead and disgusted with those who she's trusted,
To just be fucked over and left in the dust,
So she'll cling to her bottle.
And hope that tomorrow she won't sit and wallow again

She's a witch
She's a mess
She's a waste of time,
Damsel in distress on a steep decline,
When all she wants is someone to keep her warm
She's 21 next year but she's lost her mind,
She fucks it up almost every time she tries,
She grabbed my hand as I walked her to her door

Zoltar Speaks (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

The wolves don't lose sleep over the cries of the sheep,
They just laugh in their pack as they watch while we bleed
Self-destruction is imminent,
We all show our teeth,
Watch the world fall apart, caught on CCTV

Don't be so blind,
The writing's on the wall
Has been for some time
I've seen the signs, and the worst is yet to come

What ever happened to another point of view?
When things were looking up and we were headed for change,
Let this sink in,
Wishful thinking
The cracks begin to show and progress starts to slow,
We lost sight of ourselves,
Our egos started to grow,
Let this sink in,
Wishful thinking

If you just opened the curtains you'd see the light,
The fucking lies that they sell and all the shit that we buy,
There's nothing left we can do but stand and fight,
The system they put in place to have your soul in a vice

How did it come to this?
It feels like we're all stuck on a burning bridge;
How did it come to this?
The things that mattered most are dead in a ditch;
Where did it all go wrong?
Cuz things have been this way for far too long;
Where did it all go wrong?

What ever happened to another point of view?
When things were looking up and we were headed for change,
Let this sink in,
Wishful thinking
The cracks begin to show and progress starts to slow,
We lost sight of ourselves,
Our egos started to grow,
Let this sink in,
Wishful thinking

Growing Pains (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

I'll say goodnight,
In the morning I will wake up to a blinding light,
And curse at my mistakes
And say I'm not what you think,
I'll break all the links,
I'll ignore all the exit signs

Cause you've had your own mountains to climb
And I've got skeletons I hide,
In the back of my mind where I question myself,
I dwell on the past just like everyone else

Don't bear the weight of the world on your shoulders,
It's not too heavy
I'll break my back so you can feel like someone's on your side

Forget the past and all the heartache,
The growing pains that keep you awake,
I'll sing you to sleep
With songs that let you know that we'll be okay
Round and round and round this goes,
Playing on your stereo,
When I'm away and you can't sleep,
Just know that it's the same for me

And every time I see you I remember why I made you mine
That day in mid-December,
Still so young and na�ve with our hearts on our sleeves,
But I know we'll be alright

They don't know what we share in the briefest of moments,
I'm head over heels for the smallest components,
That light in your eye or that look on your face,
Secure in the fact that we both know our place

No one like you girl,
No one in the world
The perfect touch to the picture I had in my head
No one like you girl,
Nowhere in the world
That I would rather be

Don't bear the weight of the world on your shoulders,
It's not too heavy
Since we met it seems like we crossed paths at the right time

Forget the past and all the heartache,
The growing pains that keep you awake,
I'll sing you to sleep
With songs that let you know that we'll be okay
Round and round and round this goes,
Playing on your stereo,
When I'm away and you can't sleep,
Just know that it's the same for me

Say What You Want (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

I'm coming home
I'll be with you tomorrow,
I'll see you soon
I'll wake up next to you,
As long as you still want me to

Can't stand this place,
Is there anything here left for me, beside your face?
It's the only thing that's keeping me here

So go on,
Say what you want
We never talk about things,
You never let me in

You say to me
You say, "You're lucky"
I'll say the things that count for nothing,
When I'm away the nights are empty,
You gave your word you won't forget me

.

Mileage (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

"The last place I want to be is home"
Is what they all say,
They say it like they know

But every road leads home,
And every exit takes somewhere I don't know
And every city says it's burnt itself out,
Everybody wants to be more than a face in the crowd

Pull me out from beneath
Concrete paths and fallen leaves,
You can lay here in the moss
Choose to fall in line,
I've been laying in the dark
Think I'll be just fine
Pull me out from beneath
Wasted time and stressful weeks,
You can lay here in the moss
I will bide my time,
Cause I've been laying in the dark
Trying to get things right

And it tears me apart
How we knew from the start of the year
These would be our last days
But what makes you think that your ship won't sink?
You can run, but inside it will feel the same

Inside it will feel the same
Don't let it keep you awake
Don't let it tear you apart at the seams

And you will find a piece of mind underneath the doubt
The light will dim and we will grow but it won't burn out
Don't let the weight on your shoulders drag you down
Just let me know the next time you're back in town

What Did You Expect? (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

Six months has been and I'm still sick of everything that makes you smile,
I've been here before,
I'm just hoping this will die down
But I've learned from experience
That love is a risk and I'm just hoping you're hearing this,
So maybe you'll know just how it feels to be sitting here,
Wide awake and far from dreaming

Don't tell me that I'll be fine
My broken bones are caving in,
I feel you crawl beneath my skin,
You went and fucked this up
'Cuz you couldn't keep your legs shut

And you'll find me burning bridges,
Searching for some sense of distance,
Tearing out post trauma stitches that held me together,
So far gone my mind is racing,
Back and forth I can't stop pacing,
Thinking where we could have been if you'd just braved the weather

Fuck his car and fuck his money,
He might pay for you but he's got nothing
I won't be in sight when you realize that
I might just have been a more stable support,
To the life that you'll build
When he cuts himself short
Don't tell me that I'll be fine
I'm so sick of hoping you're right

Take all I am,
Tear me into pieces,
Deconstruct my bones and tell me you still don't know who I am
You've got some nerve thinking we could be friends,
Well what did you expect...a fucking compliment?

So take what's left of me,
A broken fragment from before
I guess I'll try to be the best I can without you
I know I'll find myself along this beaten track,
I'll have to let you go
And let these ghosts stay in the past

I guess I'll be fine

Blank Pages (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

Blank pages keep me awake,
But these nights are too long to shake off
My nerve to easy to break,
A brave face is too hard to fake
Stressed out and I'm losing the will,
I'm too hot but I'm feeling the chill of defeat
This happens every time,
Push the boundaries 'til I tow the line

I'll find my feet,
Save my skin and hopefully
Crush the doubt in my head
To work this out in the end
I've been crossing out the lines
And I've been wasting all my time
Questioning myself again
With ink that's trapped inside this pen

Ignore and push to the side,
Plays on in the back of my mind
The right words are too hard to find,
Keep cool and wait for a sign
No good, just good for nothing
This path must lead to something
Worth the doubt, the stress, the effort
I always knew I could never cut the pressure

Thinking back to the days when nobody knew my name
It was so easy to escape
My careless mind was a safer place

Always asking why can't bring myself to even try
Holding out till the end
Fake a smile and pretend
Oh, but there's still time to get these wounds to open wide
Spill my guts on this page,
Breaking out of this cage

.

Candour (Album: "Wishful Thinking" (2014)) (NECK DEEP LYRICS)

.

Yesterday saw you missing,
Drawn to the light in the distance
Holding her hand while she listened,
She told him how much she would miss him
Said his goodbyes to his children,
And let the weight fade away

I have your hands,
But I have my mother's eyes
Your tact and poise
And her sense of wrong and right
Heard you awake in the middle of the night,
Letting go of the things you keep inside

Worked your fingers to the bone
To be sent home with a cardboard box
Filled with everything you've known,
All things come to be loved and lost

I'll keep a moment sealed in time inside a picture frame,
A small reminder of the days I thought would never change
They always say it's clear to see
How parts of you shine through in me
I think you know, you won't be here forever
And you're counting down the days
'Til you can rest your tired eyes and let it slip away

The lessons learned at your side
Will stay with me all my life,
The man I hope to become, I know is deep down inside
I know, you don't even need to say,
I know you're proud in your own way
I know you're proud in your own way

And you watched me grow up
As I watched you grow older,
The chip off your block, held me up on your shoulders
I wish I told you yesterday

Kill The Beast (Album: "Killhammer" (2013)) (MYSTIC PROPHECY LYRICS)

.

Self-proclaimed messiah insane
Father and son drown the world into flame

Higher over the sky the damnation roll over the world
Here comes destruction

Fight the fire - his desire
Eye to eye - soldiers die
Bombs ... - no delay
... - from the USA

One bullet will come over the ocean-wide
Crush your mind, three, two, one

Kill the beast
Said dictators from the east
Kill the beast
Killing monster is unleashed
Kill the beast
Atomic bombs rise from the east
Kill the beast
Killing bastard death ...

Angel of retribution and lies
The world will fall in eternal lies

Roll the fire, blazing soul
Death desire, thunder roll
Killing heart, fill that fist
Atomic count, kill the beast

One bullet will come over the ocean-wide
Crush your mind, three, two, one

Kill the beast
Said dictators from the east
Kill the beast
Killing monster is unleashed
Kill the beast
Atomic bombs rise from the east
Kill the beast
Killing bastard death ...
Kill the beast

Kill the beast
Said dictators from the east

Hate Black (Album: "Killhammer" (2013)) (MYSTIC PROPHECY LYRICS)

.

Evil spirit over my soul
Father don't try forsake me
Never 'gain try to break me
It's time for me to realize
Goddamn solution, evil lies (eyes?)
My soul betrayed and sacrificed

Legions of the other side
Rising from the sky
No one can stop them
Evil spirit never dies

Hate black
Sacrifice myself for my last attack
Hate black
Evil eyes with hate, my madness in my head
Hate black
Something wicked now turns me back in black
Hate black
Attack, attack, attack!
Hate black

Killing is my desire
Like a child that plays with fire
Killing from the godless hand
I am soldier, I'm the command

The spirit told the evil lie
Bloody angels fill the sky
And howling souls will burn in flames

Legions of the other side
Rising from the sky
No one can stop them
Evil spirit never dies

Hate black
Sacrifice myself for my last attack
Hate black
Evil eyes with hate, my madness in my head
Hate black
Something wicked now turns me back in black
Hate black
Attack, attack, attack!
Hate black

Hate black
Sacrifice myself for my last attack
Hate black
Evil eyes with hate, my madness in my head
Hate black
Something wicked now turns me back in black

Dark angel screaming my name
With hate take my dreams
In a dark room full of nightmares
Can you hear my silent scream?

Shadows with demons eyes
No dreams are realized
Hellfire made of sins

And see the dead deep in his eyes
My soul to take till the day I die

Welcome into my nightmares
Welcome into my world

Spartan warrior made of steel
Only born to fight and kill
Fighting for destiny
Fighting be forever free

Thousands lying everywhere
Persian soldiers in despair
Hey, hay! No remorse!

Three hundred in blood
Falling one by one side by side for the ancient gods
Three hundred in blood

Spartan comes like hurricane
Killing ecstasy insane
Faster, faster, killing faster
Persian soldier - blood disaster

Spartans never fall in flames
Spartans be forever brave
Bloodless now they loose control
Try again to kill 'em all

We fight for revolution
Enemies forever, execution

Sacrifice this night for the Helladic nation

Crazy Train (Album: "Killhammer" (2013)) (MYSTIC PROPHECY LYRICS)

(�ALL ABOARD, HA HA HA HA HA!�)

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love, and forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Let's go!

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules

One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words, yeah, yeah!

Heirs of a cold war
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles
I'm mentally numb

Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Long Live The Kids (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

I�ve seen the rise and the fall
The bitterness and all
The empty hearts that stopped
Before they left their mark

In this town your worst friends
Can be your best enemies
Share the same last wish, last names
It�s all lies to keep you in line

So hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Pride may fail us
But god we will die trying

Hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Fate may cheat us
But god we will die trying

I�ve been the hope, and the doubt
The fear of breaking down
These insecurities until there�s nothing left

I wanna scream, I wanna live
I don�t care who�s listening
I won�t wait my turn to be the ignorance
It�s all lies to keep you in line

So hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Pride may fail us
But god we will die trying

Hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Fate may cheat us
But god we will die trying

You can�t tell us no
You can�t tell us no

Hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Pride may fail us
But god we will die trying

Hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Pride may fail us
But god we will die trying

Hang on, be strong
Long live the kids in us all
Fate may cheat us
But god we will die trying
God we will die trying

You can�t tell us no

The Best Thing (That Never Happened) (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

I let you get away with thinking you're the cure.
I think I'm in too deep, it's time to pull the cord.
You like me more when you think I'm getting bored.
I hope you're home the day I tear down the walls.

I won't settle, settle, settle.
You are never gonna hold me down.
So toxic, you ain't nothing but a prick.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.
Never, never, never.
You are never gonna live this down.
Life's too short, I can't fake it anymore.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.

Don't you get sick of only hearing your own voice.
Talk like you're so damn tough
But, you're just a little boy.
You like to think you broke the mold.
But, now I'm sure you'll crack just like the rest
When I break your fucking jaw.

I won't settle, settle, settle.
You are never gonna hold me down.
So toxic, you ain't nothing but a prick.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.
Never, never, never.
You are never gonna live this down.
Life's too short, I can't fake it anymore.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.

I won't settle.
I won't settle.
I won't settle.

I won't settle, settle, settle.
You are never gonna hold me down.
So toxic, you ain't nothing but a prick.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.
Never, never, never.
You are never gonna live this down.
Life's too short, I can't fake it anymore.
I'm the best thing that never happened to ya.

Manners (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

Someone should teach you some manners
(I wish I had a camera)
I think you�ve got more nerve than you�ve got tact
(I wanna take a picture)
of the look when your words bite you back
(remember how I shut you out
just like that)

What do you see what you close your eyes?
(do you sleep?)
I know you do and I�m not surprised
While your ego keeps your warm
(it�s burning)
All the bridges that you swore
(would never fall)

We tried, oh, we tried
What goes around comes around
And now it�s right back here to haunt you

We tried, oh, we tried
(I earned my wings teaching guys like you
to keep their mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
I might have lost what I found
But I�m right back here
To haunt you

�and now I�m right back here

(You�re so transparent)
I see straight through your empty chest
And spineless back
(I�ve seen enough not to trust)
I think enough is enough
(you got too close)

You know I�m terrible
At keeping track of sleep
(it always seems to sneak away)
along with wolves like you
dressed as counted sheep

We tried, oh, we tried
(I kept my mouth shut, I kept my mouth shut)
What goes around comes around
And now it�s right back here to haunt you

We tried, oh, we tried
(I earned my wings teaching guys like you
to keep their mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
I might have lost what I found
But I�m right back here
To haunt you

It always seems to slip away
I�m taking back what is mine
What is left stays here to haunt you

It always seems to slip away
Don�t even know what you lost
But I hope this will remind you
(You could never be honest)
remind you
(You�re not the first or the last I promise)

We tried, oh, we tried
(I kept my mouth shut, I kept my mouth shut)
What goes around comes around
And now it�s right back here to haunt you

We tried, oh, we tried
(I earned my wings teaching guys like you
to keep their mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
I might have lost what I found
But I�m right back here
To haunt you

And now I�m right back here
And now I�m right back here to haunt you

I don�t even know you anymore
But I think you know
What you mean to me

Things will never be the way
They were before
I guess you can�t count on anything

And your brand new friends
They won�t care about you
When the party ends
They�ll leave you in the dark
Saying tell me where you�re hidin�
I think it�s time to come back home

You taught me everything I know
About poetry
I still pretend I know what it means

Remember picking out who we wanna be
Back when we didn�t know anything

And your brand new friends
They won�t care about you
When the party ends
They�ll leave you in the dark
Saying tell me where you�re hidin�
I think it�s time to come back home

Every night since you�ve been gone
I still leave the light on
I know it�s wrong, to wait so long

You say you�re getting on just fine
But you still stutter when you lie
I know you better
Tell me would you come back home

And your brand new friends
They won�t care about you
When the party ends
They�ll leave you in the dark
Saying tell me where you�re hidin�
I think it�s time to come back home
Come back home
I think it�s time you come back home

Attention (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

We�re all just weird kids in the end

Attention, I�ll walk you through this slowly
If you�re still listening
Here�s your penny back
For stealing our thoughts

All for the sake
Of wanting more
Play it safe
While you keep score
And one day, we might find
That piece of mind
That we lost in the first place

I know the way I wanna be
But I�m trapped in who I am
The only thing that holds me back is
Believing that
I need to change

We are (we are the)
The only friends we have
And if there�s nothing left
And I fall
We don�t fall apart

We�re all just weird kids in the end

I tied up my laces
Left my loose ends hanging
On the words that I had
Wished that I said
Memories that
Keep me up in bed

Shoulda, coulda, woulda stayed
The way I�ve been
If it wasn�t for the means
There�d be no end
To sleepless nights in parking lots
That light the way
To make a better me

If I could write these feelings
Into a greater meaning
They�d fall on deaf ears

I know the way I wanna be
But I�m trapped in who I am
The only thing that holds me back is
Believing that
I need to change

We are (we are the)
The only friends we have
And if there�s nothing left
And I fall
We don�t fall apart

We don�t fall apart
(we don�t fall, we don�t fall, we don�t fall)
We don�t fall apart

I know the way I wanna be
But I�m trapped in who I am
The only thing that holds me back is
Believing that
I need to change

We are (we are the)
The only friends we have
And if there�s nothing left
And I fall
We don�t fall apart

I know the way I wanna be
But I�m trapped in who I am
The only thing that holds me back is
Believing that
I need to change

We are (we are the)
The only friends we have
And if there�s nothing left
And I fall

Dreaming Out Loud (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

I�m sifting through memories
Looking for answers in the past
A dose of reality
I hate the taste
But I know it�s for the best

Connecting dotted lines
Taking steps to find
A way to fix myself
I try to redefine
All the things that hold me back
Out of this mess

I think I slept right through the good part
But somehow I�m still tired
I know it�s time to make a new start
I can�t seem to find a way
To walk out of my head
I�m afraid of what I�d miss
I think I slept right through the good part
So here�s to dreaming out loud

It�s like I�ve seen everything
But I can�t remember when
Took more pictures than memories
I wonder if I was ever there at all

Connecting dotted lines
Taking steps to find
A way to fix myself
I try to redefine
All the things that hold me back
Out of this mess

I think I slept right through the good part
But somehow I�m still tired
I know it�s time to make a new start
I can�t seem to find a way
To walk out of my head
I�m afraid of what I�d miss
I think I slept right through the good part
So here�s to dreaming out loud

Here�s to dreaming out loud
Oh, I�m just dreaming

I think I slept right through the good part
But somehow I�m still tired
I know it�s time to make a new start
I can�t seem to find a way
To walk out of my head

Remember (To Forget You) (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

All my exes live in texts,
just a symptom of the times
and these miscommunications
we can leave between the lines.

How do I know you and me wont make it if we don't try?
We're just stuck here in the mean time

I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind
I can never remember how I met you,
and every time I try

I can't find a way to cover your face
with the truth inside the lies
I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind

I've got a complex for every message
and I sit and wonder why
I've got letters stacked in boxes
and you're the subject every time

How do I know you and me wont make it if we don't try?
We're just stuck here in the mean time

I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind
I can never remember how I met you,
and every time I try

I can't find a way to cover your face
with the truth inside the lies
I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind

Drowning in jealousy
Of people we wanna be
We're drowning in jealousy
Of people we wanna be

I cant stand to be myself
I could be anybody else
We're drowning in jealousy
Of people we wanna be

I'm so sick of being everything
To everyone but me.

I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind
I can never remember how I met you,
and every time I try

I can't find a way to cover your face
with the truth inside the lies
I gotta remember to forget you
cause you're always on my mind

cause you're always on my mind

Don't You Worry (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

You think you spent the best of your life
Like a puppet on a string
You think you got, none of it right
And there�s no time left to change
So many memories
They�re all so bittersweet
So many avenues
Back to where we were

Don�t you worry about a thing
You�re just lost inside a scream
Don�t blow it, and make your life
Nothing less than you could own it
Make it right, nothing less than you should be
Don�t you worry about a thing
My sister

You taught me what was wrong and what�s right
And you�re proof of what it means
To be lost alone in plain sight
Things are never what they seem

Why can�t you ever see
It�s always bittersweet
The only avenue
Back to where we were

Don�t you worry about a thing
You�re just lost inside a scream
Don�t blow it, and make your life
Nothing less than you could own it
Make it right, nothing less than you should be
Don�t you worry about a thing
My sister

Don�t tell me
You�re fading
You�ve got so much that you could be

Don�t tell me
It�s hopeless
You�re the only reason you should need

Don�t you worry about a thing
You�re just lost inside a scream
Don�t blow it, and make your life
Nothing less than you could own it
Make it right, nothing less than you should be
Don�t you worry about a thing

Windows In Heaven (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

Seems like a dream
Awakened before it was done
How could this be?
I walk alone
But sometimes I picture your hands
Held in my own
My brave face is too late now

If you could see me now
Would you be pleased and proud?
I�m doing fine, but sometimes I cry
When I see your face
Are there windows in heaven?
To see me now
Through all the sky and clouds
Living my life
With a heart full of pride
When I see your face
Are there windows in heaven?

You didn�t leave
But you left behind more than you know
More than I see
I still can�t let go
Your image I can�t say goodbye
Here from below
My brave face is too late now

If you could see me now
Would you be pleased and proud?
I�m doing fine, but sometimes I cry
When I see your face
Are there windows in heaven?
To see me now
Through all the sky and clouds
Living my life
With a heart full of pride
When I see your face

Take me back to the time
Together we�d sing out
Together we�d live out
All of the rest of our lives
For just one more minute
I can�t get you in it
One moment to fill in
Last time face it�s too late now

If you could see me now
Would you be pleased and proud?
I�m doing fine, but sometimes I cry
When I see your face
Are there windows in heaven?
To see me now
Through all the sky and clouds
Living my life
With a heart full of pride
When I see your face
Are there windows in heaven?

Reflections (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

I think I�ve seen you before
Another time, another face
Whoever opened the door
Never had the time to waste

To paint pictures over windows
That don�t satisfy our taste
It�s so convenient to lose the truth
When it�s laughing in your face

Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own
I don�t believe it�s complicated
So I think I�ll stay at home
I followed the leader
Now I just follow myself
Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own

I know I�ve been here before
But I can�t find, the time or place
If we stay in the past
There�ll be no future left to waste

Pinning paper wings on problems
Hoping that they�ll fly away
Turn our backs, ignore the truth
If they can�t support the weight

Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own
I don�t believe it�s complicated
So I think I�ll stay at home
I followed the leader
Now I just follow myself
Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own

Reflections on a two way mirror
Of everyone and everything
That�s coming, and coming out
Of our lives
I can see myself in the static
I can see myself in you
Reflections on a two way mirror
Times running out, times running out

Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own
I don�t believe it�s complicated
So I think I�ll stay at home
I followed the leader
Now I just follow myself
Destiny is overrated
So I think I�ll write my own
So I think I�ll write my own

Perfect Reason (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

There�s something brilliant
In the way he wears his sins
Like a crown of thorns
A king of nothing
A war that no one wins

But every time I realize that I
Have seen this all before
Retrace the steps to faces that might
Lead to an open door

I�ve had enough
Of waiting for the perfect reason
Just to give you up
And all of your darkest secrets

There�s gotta be a way just show me
Can�t we both forget this all

Watch me give you up
And I�m spilling all your darkest
Spilling all your darkest secrets

There�s something brilliant
In the way she wears my sins
For the world to see she�s stronger now
With or without me

I can�t try to hide it
I wish that I could
Hate you with all of my bones
I really hope you saved the best for last

I�ve had enough
Of waiting for the perfect reason
Just to give you up
And all of your darkest secrets

There�s gotta be a way just show me
Can�t we both forget this all

Watch me give you up
And I�m spilling all your darkest
Spilling all your darkest secrets

Now I�m waking up
life goes on without you
I�m gonna take it back
Gonna make it last this time

Now I�m standing up
Life goes on without you
I�m make it back
Gonna leave the past behind
I�ve had enough
Of waiting for the perfect reason
Just to give you up
And all of your darkest secrets

There�s gotta be a way just show me
Can�t we both forget this all

Watch me give you up
And I�m spilling all your darkest
Spilling all your darkest secrets

Waiting (Album: "Weird Kids" (2014)) (WE ARE THE IN CROWD LYRICS)

.

I�m waiting
For the seasons to change
They keep fading
But I still feel the same
I keep breaking
And nothing�s gonna change my mind

I keep making
It up as I go
Always faking
A smile gets old
Give what I�m taking
Something�
Yeah something�s gonna change my mind

Waiting
To wake up where I�ve been dreaming of
Leave me
Inside a memory that you made up

Don�t tell me
(they�ll all just try to change you)
and control me
(they�ll break you down and rearrange you)

Someone show me something
That I can believe in
Cause I can�t show myself

Waiting
To wake up where I�ve been dreaming of
Leave me
Inside a memory that you made up

I�m done living inside your head
Save your secondhand love songs
Just put em� to rest

I�m waiting
To wake up where I�ve been dreaming of

Someone told me
I think you�ve said enough
The enemy is me
I�m getting sick of when you
Come around, come around
My head
I�m gonna lock you out, lock you out
But I still feel the same

Waiting
To wake up where I�ve been dreaming of
Leave me
Inside a memory that you made up

I�m done living inside your head
Save your secondhand love songs
Just put em� to rest

I�m waiting
To wake up where I�ve been dreaming of

Jonathan (Album: "The Predator Becomes The Prey" (2014)) (ICE NINE KILLS LYRICS)

.

God has taken my eyes
If I see no reflection,
how the hell do I know I'm alive?
As the darkness bleeds into my mind
The force that screams to give up
is grave enough to carve my name into a stone

Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
If you knew what it meant to be me

Could you close your eyes and never say �never�?
Or would you call this the end of the road?
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
As this curse drains the life out of me

God has taken my eyes
Yet blind faith couldn't kill me
It just is what it is between him and I
I've made sense of my senses
and found my defenses internally
This is what sets me free

Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
If you knew what it meant to be me

Could you close your eyes and never say �never�?
Or would you call this the end of the road?
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
As this curse drains the life out of me

Even if I never see again
I know I will breathe again
With the strength of a thousand men
I won't let this be my end
[x2]

Inspired by hope or defined by disease?
If you knew what it meant to be me

Could you close your eyes and never say �never�?
Or would you call this the end of the road?
I'm running out of memories, a shell of what I used to be
As this curse drains the life out of me

I won't let this drain the life out of me

What I Never Learned In Study Hall (Album: "The Predator Becomes The Prey" (2014)) (ICE NINE KILLS LYRICS)

.

I'm six feet below this burning wreckage
of the life we used to know
Now all the hope we had is dying

From the moment we started
Every single thing I promised you I followed through
And just like a pawn would, all the moves that I would make would be at your decree

But every second spent with you has meant nothing at all
And now the gloves are off let's tear apart all our poisoned memories
I know I'm better off alone

'Cause I'm six feet below this burning wreckage
of the life we used to know
Now all the hope we had is dying

From the moment we started,
Every word you said made me feel that this was real
But still I was guarded
Not the first time I had fallen prey to this cliche'

Every second spent with you has meant nothing at all
I'm left talking to myself where did I go wrong?
And now the gloves are off, let's disregard what I thought you meant to me
I know I'm better off alone

'Cause I'm six feet below this burning wreckage
of the life we used to know
Now all the hope we had is dying
'Cause I'm six feet below
I hope you hear this message
That to live is to let go
But still a part of me is dying

I'm more alive; I'm over being broken
Time has healed all wounds
I wish the scratches that you left on me
Were scars I left on you

I turned my back on the person you've become
And realized what it means to be forgotten
Be forgotten

I turned my back on the person you've become
Now Realize how it feels to be forgotten
So be forgotten

I'm six feet below this burning wreckage
Of the life we used to know

'Cause I'm six feet below
I hope you hear this message
That to live is to let go
But still a part of me is dying

So Long Steven Long (Album: "The Predator Becomes The Prey" (2014)) (ICE NINE KILLS LYRICS)

.

You're the only one amused by your inconsequential views
You'd have to strike me so much harder to even leave a bruise

Silence all the bitter and the used
Their never-ending stream of abuse
Comes in the form of a critical exchange
When you say "How does it feel to be damned?"

We are defenders of the broken life we've chosen
And there's no one else to blame
We are defenders of loss, the only ones we cross
Dig down and find the strength today

You resent me like a bastard son
With some crooked aim to destroy
Transparent, as your hollow praise

Dig down and find the strength today and the Strength to say
"We are defenders of the broken life"

Bury all of your envy away
Damned are the souls of those who shame what I have made

What Lies Beneath (Album: "The Predator Becomes The Prey" (2014)) (ICE NINE KILLS LYRICS)

.

Well I've been drowning in defeat
But I have heard revenge is sweet
So this is the end
This is the end

Did you really think you'd force me to my knees?
Despite your confidence you'll never bury me
So give it hell, draw some blood
Cause after me comes the fucking flood

I promise I'm not slipping away
Just gotta hold my breath forever
And honestly I need no escape
I'm just caught in the wake of it all and the tide has turned

This is something worth fighting for, I know
But the storm is here
A calamity of hopes and fears
And when the sky starts to give way
The Predator Becomes The Prey
So let the flood gates open now

You cannot fight the undertow
The water churns, reaching for life
But I'll find a hand to lift me up

My Life In Two (Album: "The Predator Becomes The Prey" (2014)) (ICE NINE KILLS LYRICS)

.

Am I just holding onto memories, the perfect pieces of my past?
I never thought I'd be the one to say that dreams don't always last

I've screamed my heart out, given everything
I split my life in two
And I don't regret anything

If I can see the damages by now
Can you hear the sound?
Is it time, or just the voice inside my mind that says -
"Don't throw your life away reaching for yesterday"?
I only promise I'm not giving up today

And when my mind starts pulling away
My heart will have the fight to make it
I'll turn my back on better days
I know my pride can take it

I've sacrificed half of my life
I hear it in every line I write -
That a part of me I lost along the way
I'll never get back again

And when my hope stops leading the way
It might be too late to make it out
And when jealousy will be all I breathe
Who am I to play the martyr?

My head will bow in shame
When my heart stops leading the way
Who am I to play the martyr?
I'm the one to blame
When my heart stops leading the way
Who am I to play the martyr?

If I can see the damages by now
Can you hear the sound and walk away?

The Spider And The Bee (Album: "Polaroids In July" (2012)) (Tempting Paris LYRICS)

.

Carefully I watched a spider catch a fly upon my window sill
trapped in a sticky mess well no wonder he's putting up a fight
Refill my coffee and wonder if she'd only known where he had been
And where he would go
Would she still trap him in her nature or let him fly back home?

I'm leaving here on my own

The spider and the bee are like you and me
Lost in love and life and trying hard just to see and not be alone
Mean something to anyone
Will we go home?
Understand that I am the shy little fly and you've slowly become a spider of the night

Bumblebee, soaking up the sunlight while connecting he and she
Their loving calls of the springtime echo through the breeze
It's a comforting feeling that when a life did end another one began
Life can be a beautifully disturbing scene

Now watch me fly

The spider and the bee are like you and me
Lost in love and life and trying hard just to see and not be alone
Mean something to anyone
Will we go home?
Understand that I am the shy little fly and you've slowly become a spider of the night

I guess that's how it goes, this web of life
Tell me something peaceful, whisper something hopeful
I know we are one
I know it's all my fault

The spider and the bee are like you and me
Lost in love and life and trying hard just to see and not be alone
Mean something to anyone
Will we go home?
Understand that I am the harmless little fly and you've slowly become a spider of the night.

The Boys You Talk To In Parking Lots (Album: "Polaroids In July" (2012)) (Tempting Paris LYRICS)

.

Tell me a lie that you think I won't expect whatever makes it easier to leave
Tell me this time I'm the one you want except let's not pretend you mean what you say
Have a nice day

There's something wrong with your eyes.
Was it something I said or something I did that made you cry?

Changing your mind again cause you don't wanna lose me or anyone else.
I'm over you.

Tell me a lie like you've done a dozen times. maybe this time I will fall for you
Tell me I'm fine, I should not overreact. you honestly can not believe I'll stay.
Have a nice day.

There's something wrong with your eyes.
Was it something I said or something I did that made you cry?

Changing your mind again cause you don't wanna lose me or anyone else.
I'm over you.

Sweet Sabastian (Album: "Polaroids In July" (2012)) (Tempting Paris LYRICS)

.

I can't believe my eyes.
He looks just like you
and that's fine by me, baby.
Now sleep is gone I can see.
But here lies my dream.
We've done so well, baby

My little boy smiled today

If you're ever scared of being alone you should know I'll never leave
And when people say that dreams are untrue you can say I'm living proof

Hey, listen to me.
There's nothing that you can't do if you want to

My little boy smiled today

If you're ever scared of being alone you should know I'll never leave
And when people say that dreams are untrue you can say I'm living proof

One day you will move away and things will seem hard.
But know mistakes are fine and don't you worry I will calm her down.
Some day you will meet a girl and let me just say that falling in love
will make you feel like the luckiest boy in the world
Sweet Sebastian, I can't wait to watch you sleep and kiss you goodnight
Sweet Sebastian, I'll be your night light

If you're ever scared of being alone you should know I'll never leave
And when people say that dreams are untrue you can say I'm living proof

I can't wait to watch you sleep
You're the best thing that I've done
I can't wait to watch you dream
Sweet Sebastian, I'm in love

Chasing Day Dreams (Album: "Polaroids In July" (2012)) (Tempting Paris LYRICS)

.

Wake up and smell the rain on a peaceful summer night
Sip coffee, read a book and think about my life
There's just so many things to do before I die
And I will do them all with you right there by my side

Well we started making plans together in our apartment beside the bar
Imagining when she will not be there at our feet
Our little friend until the end

Imagine for a second please that you are as tiny as me
Now pretend you have to walk surrounded by feet
Eventually I'll take a nap and then maybe I'll grab a snack
But either way I still can't wait for someone to come home

And life is so good when you're chasing daydreams

And maybe somedays I get in the way, please know that I'm sorry
I hope that they can see how much they mean to me
A day in the life of our sweet little angel
I don't know where we'd be without her loving kiss

The sunshine makes it hard to leave the window where I like to sleep
I'll probably just lay here all day I know you're jealous
The neighbors call to me and say, "I wish you could come out and play"
I guess that means I need to find a reason to go out

And life is so good when you're chasing daydreams

And maybe somedays I get in the way, please know that I'm sorry
I hope that they can see how much they mean to me
A day in the life of our sweet little angel
I don't know where we'd be without her loving kiss

Outside, breathe in the air as I wander looking for somewhere to pass the time
As clouds roll by
Its time, soon they will be home and then I finally can curl up and fall asleep in ecstasy
Sometimes I just can not resist the lure of a carefree lazy day

And maybe somedays I get in the way, please know that I'm sorry
I hope that they can see how much they mean to me
A day in the life of our sweet little angel
I don't know where we'd be without her loving kiss
A story of laughter, a tale of enchantment, a day in the life of our fuzzy little friend
I hope that they can see how much they mean to me
